puffer

Hope everyone had a great Christmas!  We spent it at home and are now at the in-laws in the country a few hours east (brr).  As much as I hate the cold, I am sad that we didn't have a white Christmas.  I am happy though that I've avoided wearing a puffer coat and it's almost January.  I even got away with wearing a t-shirt recently (see last post).  But it's puffer weather here (although beautiful) and today I wore my Christmas sweater since I never got a chance to wear it.  But even though it's the beginning of winter, it's almost the beginning of a new year, which means it's almost spring.  And our countdown to Mexico, which I booked a couple of days ago, just in case winter is not kind to us again.

current obsession: camouflage parka

(Marc by Marc Jacobs Forks Printed Cotton Parka: net-a-porter.com, also here)

So if it wasn't for the major purchases I have made recently and for the upcoming holidays, I would be all over this jacket.  Unfortunately, my budget won't allow for it.  Or maybe it will if, say, it went on sale.  I keep thinking about this jacket though.  Usually when I can't stop thinking about something, I end up getting it.  But in this case, I'll have to hold my breath and hope it goes on sale, or pick up this more affordable one at Zara.

I must have a thing for parkas in general right now because I just bought this one from the GAP in yellow.  (Bonus: it's 30% off until Sunday!)
